Looking For "Friends" to join "Our League" Season 3

Silver league final standings:

While Norwood made the most of their OL games, they unfortunately fell 3 games short of the 10 game requirement. Hartford takes the crown by taking care of business down the stretch (taking 4 of 6 from Waffletown).

Overall, Waffletown backed into the division title with an ugly 13-16 final months of Sep/Oct, and managed to sit atop with a slim 1 game lead. When game 162 finished, Hartford sat at 87-75, and in a three-way tie for the final wild card game with Alto Marie Latios and Abington GreenWave. I'm not sure how that three-way tie breaker is setup (it's not a round-robin, everyone plays everyone style), but Hartford won their game against Alto Marie, then went on to face Abington, but lost that game; so Abington advances to the wild card.

Norwood had a nice turnaround, going from barely above the relegation zone, to just missing the wild card by a single game.

And in the foundation of the league, Hooterville and Blitzkrieg will be relegated back to Bronze.


Waffletown will be the lone playoff representative from OL.

Congratulations!

Congrats on another fine season. Let's see if we can't be a little more diligent in getting the newer teams friended. We missed out on a chance for an iron crown.


Good luck to those in the playoffs. I'll try to get a handle on any successes for OL members, but it's always great when people post results.

Otonokizaka lost in the wildcard and will stay in Iron with Cochise County and Daytona Beach. Records for the week below.

Cochise County 4-3
Otonokizaka 6-5
Daytona Beach 1-3

So, in frustration, I used their last 3000 PP to purchase 3 packs...and lo and behold...this happened.

The addition of Joe Gordon to the Ring Road roster kicked off a 10-game losing streak, on their way to a 2-13 finish and firm relegation.

At least now the Rams will be in the correct league for their (lack of) talent.

heh... I feel your pain.... Matt Kilroy went a blistering 2-2 with a 4.89 era in his brief regular season with Waffletown; and then proceeded to lose game 1 of the LDS giving up 7 runs in 5.2 innings.... not exactly what I had in mind

Silver league playoffs:

Waffletown goes the distance with Texas and emerged victorious 3 games to 2 to head to the LCS


Waffletown will move up to Gold tier next season (and probably move back down the next )

[Edster007]

In Diamond Kansas fell in the in Division series. In Bronze K-Town is up 2-0 (and is now 5-0 in the playoffs) in the Sub League Series.

So as a reminder: in Bronze K-Town will be moving up while Asheboro and Transylvania will be going down.

In Diamond: Coney Island is dropping down and nobody is moving up to the slaughterhouse known as perfect league.

Cary and Palolo meet in the G326 World Series, our second in PT 21.

Silver league playoffs:

Waffletown drags out the drama again, taking the LCS to the full 7 games; and most recently acquired Matt Kilroy earns his keep by pitching a complete game shutout to secure the Syrups ticket to the Silver league World Series.

(side note: I really really really hope that in v22 they do something different with the Live mission rewards, cause these cookie cutter teams are getting mind-numbingly dull to face..... my WS opponent has 23 of 26 players being SE Live rewards.... and seeing 25 Ichirios/Bagwells/Madduxes/Johnsons/Carltons/Blylevens/etc in the league just sucks any interest/fun out of things... at least to me... if it's like this again next year, not sure I'll even bother with PT)

Silver playoff update:


Waffletown dropped the first two games at home to dig themselves an 0-2 hole; but turned things around from there to run off 4 straight wins to secure their second World Series championship. Huzzah!

Congratulations!

I believe that does it for the post season winners. Let's make sure we get everyone included for 2040. Please make sure your friends list is full and includes those closest to you. Make sure to submit.

[ColbyVargas]

anyone heading to Stone tomorrow (barely made the cut) please friend MisterV (Los Dragones De Ciudad Trujillo). I friended all of you.

Quick question, if I'm reading the first post right, can we play with SE cards like Jeff Bagwell, and Randy Johnson? If so, I'll contemplate spending points on completing a live collection or two to get some of the SE cards.

Yes, you can.

[Stanley Kuppchaser]

My friends list had no league numbers that clashed. It covers all teams from diamond down through 3 iron teams. I've attached the league lineups for silver and gold. In silver, unless something changes in the schedule (which sometimes happens), Ring Road will have exactly 10 games. In gold, every team will be 20+ OL games. Hope we got all the new guys in. Good luck to all. Guess I should have snipped more of the standings. The first is G305. The second S284.

[Charlatan]

FYI Vanden, completing the live collections is a money maker (or it was until very recently... I last did it 4 weeks ago) since you get some pretty high value cards for the division and league completion bonus missions. So even if there are SE cards you don't want to play it might be worth completing the missions and selling the reward cards.

Brigadoon sold the 100 OVR Ripken yesterday to get better pitching (and he won the Gold Glove at 1B post sale!). As if to replace him, we got another incredible pull this morning as I was opening tourney packs.
